Using security labels to control writers z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator's Guide SA23-2289-00 |
|
If both the WRITER and the SECLABEL class are active when RACF® checks a writer's authority to process outbound work, RACF uses "reverse MAC" (mandatory access checking). That is, the outbound work must have a security label, and the security label of the writer must be equal to or greater than the outbound work's security label. You can use this to limit the sensitivity of the data that writers can process. For example, if you have some writers that process low-sensitivity information, you can assign those writers a low-sensitivity security label, such as SYSLOW. This prevents sensitive work from leaving your node through those writers. |
